  • 국가는 대형사고에 대비한 범국가적 해양 구난방제체제 수립이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 그러나 우리나라는 구난방제 시절과 기술이 부족한 관계로 대형 해양사고 발생시 그 처리를 외국기술에 의존하는 형편이다. 이로 인해 가장 중요한 사고초기에 적절한 대처를 못하여 사고의 피해를 크게 확산시킬 우려가 상존하고 있다. 이에 이 논문에서는 해양사고가 발생할 경우 신속하고 효과적인 구난방제작업을 할 수 있도록 구난방제체제의 기반조성과 시설투자, 구난방제 기술개발 및 능력 배양 등 다각적인 방안을 제시하였다.

  • 해양 기름오염 방제조치에 관한 연구의 일환으로 정량적 기초자료를 확보하기 위하여 최근 10년간(2003~2012년) 국내 연안에서 발생한 기름오염사고에 관한 통계자료를 수집하여 연간 기름오염사고 건수와 연간 기름 유출량을 사고 원인(Cause)별, 오염원(Source)별, 해역(Sea area)별로 분석하였다. (1) 사고 원인별로 분석한 결과, (1) 부주의로 인한 사고 건수(1,429건)와 해양사고로 인한 사고 건수(790건)가 각각 전체 건수(2,833건)의 50.4 %와 27.9 %를 차지하였다. 그리고 해가 거듭될수록 해양사고로 인한 사고 건수는 감소하는 경향을 보인 반면에 부주의로 인한 사고 건수는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. (2) 해양사고로 인한 유출량(17,400 kL)이 전체 기름 유출량(17,877 kL)의 97.3 %를 차지하였고 부주의로 인한 기름유출량(294 kL)이 1.7 %를 점유하였다. (2) 오염원별로 분석한 결과, (1) 어선에 의한 사고건수(1,210건)가 전체 건수(2,833건)의 42.7 %, 기타 선박에 의한 사고 건수(620건)가 21.9 %, 화물선에 의한 사고 건수(367건)가 13.0 %, 유조선에 의한 사고 건수(261건)가 9.2 %를 차지하였다. 해가 거듭될수록 어선에 의한 사고 건수는 감소하는 경향을 보였지만 여전히 높은 수치를 보인 반면에 화물선과 기타 선박에 의한 사고 건수는 완만하게 증가하는 경향을 보였고 유조선에 의한 사고 건수는 연간 13~37건으로 해마다 크게 변동하였다. (2) 유조선의 기름 유출량(15,488 kL)이 전체 기름 유출량(17,877 kL)의 86.7 %를, 기타 선박의 기름 유출량(898 kL)이 5.0 %를, 화물선의 기름 유출량(733 kL)이 4.1 %를, 어선의 기름 유출량(590 kL)이 3.3 %를 차지하였다. (3) 해역별로 분석한 결과, (1) 남해에서의 사고 건수(1,613건)와 기름 유출량(3,804 kL)은 전체 사고 건수의 56.9 %와 전체 기름 유출량의 21.3 %를, 서해에서의 사고 건수(700건)와 기름 유출량(13,501 kL)은 전체 사고 건수의 24.7 %와 전체 기름 유출량의 75.5 %를, 동해에서의 사고 건수(520건)와 기름 유출량(572 kL)은 전체 사고 건수의 18.2 %와 전체 기름 유출량의 3.2 %를 차지함으로써 사고 건수에서는 남해가 최고였고 기름 유출량에서는 2006년까지는 남해가 최고(1위)였으나 2007년 유조선 Hebei Spirit호 기름유출사고 이후에는 서해가 최고(1위)였으며, 동해에서의 사고 건수와 기름 유출량이 모두 남해나 서해보다 적은 값으로 나타났다. (2) 해가 거듭될수록 동해와 남해에서의 사고 건수와 기름 유출량이 모두 감소하는 경향을 보인 반면에 서해에서는 사고 건수가 연도별 증감의 변동 폭이 적어 거의 일정한 경향을 보였으며 기름 유출량은 연도별로 증감의 변동 폭이 컸다.

  • The marine environment is under considerable threat from intentional or accidental oil spills, ballast water discharged, dredging and infilling for coastal development, and uncontrolled sewage and industrial wastewater discharges. Monitoring spills and illegal oil discharges is an important component in ensuring compliance with marine protection legislation and general protection of the coastal environments. For the monitoring task an image processing system is needed that can efficiently perform the detection and the tracking of oil spills and in this direction a significant amount of research work has taken place mainly with the use of radar (SAR) remote sensing data. In this paper the level set image segmentation technique was tested for the detection of oil spills. Level set allow the evolving curve to change topology (break and merge) and therefore boundaries of particularly intricate shapes can be extracted. Experimental results demonstrated that the level set segmentation can be used for the efficient detection and monitoring of oil spills, since the method coped with abrupt shape’s deformations and splits.

  • An emergency response system (ERS) for vessel oil spills is a complex and dynamic system comprising a number of subsystems and activities. Failures may occur during the emergency response operations, this has negative impacts on the effectiveness of the ERS. Of the classes of problems in analyzing failures, the lack of quantitative data is fundamental. In fact, most of the empirical data collected via questionnaire survey is subjective in nature and is inevitably associated with uncertainties caused by the human being's inability to provide complete judgement. In addition, incomplete information and/or vagueness of the meaning about the failures add difficulties in evaluating the effectiveness of the system. Therefore this paper proposes a framework to evaluate the ERS effectiveness by using the combination of fuzzy reasoning and evidential synthesis approaches. Based on analyzing the procedure of ERS for oil spills, the failures in the system could be identified, using Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)to determine the relative weight of identified failures. Fuzzy reasoning combined with evidential synthesis is applied to evaluate the effectiveness of ERS for oil spills under uncertainties last. The proposed method is capable of dealing with uncertainties in data including ignorance and vagueness which traditional methods cannot effectively handle. A case study is used to illustrate the application of the proposed method.

  • There has been increasing offshore oil exploration, drilling, and production activities, as well as a huge amount of petroleum being transported by tankers and pipelines through the ocean and costal environment. Assessment must be made of the potential risk of damage resulting from the exploration, development and transportation activities. This is achieved through predictive impact evaluations of the fate of hypothetical or real oil spills. VVhen an oil spill occurs, planning and execution of cleanup measures also require the capability to forecast the short-term and long-term behavior of the spilled oil. A great amount of effort has been spent by government agencies, oil industries, and researchers over the past decade to develop more realistic models for oil spills. Numerous oil spill models have been developed and applied, most of which attempt to predict the oil spill fate and behavior. For an actual contingency planning, the oil fate and behavior model should be combined with an oil spill incident model, an environmental impact and risk model and a contingency planning model. The purpose of this review study is to give an overview of existing oil spill models that deal with the physical, chemical, biological, and socia-economical aspects of the incident, fate, and environmental impact of oil spills. After reviewing the existing models, future research needs are suggested. In the study, available oil spill models are separated into oil spill incident, oil spill fate and behavior, environmental impact and risk, and contingency planning models. The processes of the oil spill fate and behavior are reviewed in detail and the characteristics of existing oil spill fate and behavior models are examined and classified so that an ideal model may be identified. Finally, future research needs are discussed.

  • Since oil spills discharged by offshore oil production platforms, ship accidents etc., cause many environmental problems, forecasts of drift and spreading of the spilled oil are requested as a basis for oil spill combat management. The numerical approach has been thought as the most effective methods of such forecast. In general, the oil spill model takes into account the trajectory and fate of oil, including drifting, spreading, evaporation, dispersion, emulsification, shoreline standing, and so on. (omitted)

  • Oil spills caused by the accidents have been occurred from house and factory waste, grounded tanker, the rupture of storage tank and oil pipelines, the deterioration of various industrial facilities, etc. Many oil spills result in contamination of shorelines and workplace. Fire and explosion may happen from these spills. There are several technologies used for clean-up application, which include use of oil dispersing agents, absorbents, solidifiers, booms and skimmers by physical, chemical, and biological methods. Methods for oil spill clean-up operation are classified into the absorption type, gel type and self-swelling type. Porous materials with oil absorptive properties are classified into micropore, mesopore, and macropore depending on their pore sizes. Recently, new porous materials with smaller size have been developed, but the selective oil absorption in water-in-oil interface demonstrates the macro pore size. In this study oil absorption effects were evaluated using the organic porous materials with a complex function of gel type and swelling type. Samples were subjected to analysis by FT-IR spectroscopy and were characterized in terms of gel formation and morphologies. Oil sorption capacity, pressure retention force and gel strength were also measured. From these results, the physicochemical reactivity before and after gelation was verified and the industrial applications of clean-up operation were suggested.

  • Oil pollution of the ocean is a major environmental problem, especially in its coastal zones. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) flown on satellites, such as ERS-2 and Envisat, has been proved to be a useful tool in oil spill monitoring due to its wide coverage, day and night, and all-weather capability. The total 120 SAR images containing oil spill over the East China Sea were collected and analyzed, ranging in date from July 23, 2002 to November 11, 2005. After preprocessed, SAR images were segmented by adaptive threshold method. The oil spill images were incorporated into GIS after distinguished from look-like phenomena, finally we presented the oil spills distribution map for the East China Sea. The wide-swath and quick-looks SAR imagery for mapping of oil spill distribution over large marine areas were proved to be useful when full resolution data are not available. After the temporal and spatial distribution of the oil spills were analyzed, we found that most of oil spills were distributed along the main ship routes, which means the illegal discharge by ships, and the occurrence of oil spill detected on SAR images acquired during morning and summer is much higher than during evening and winter.

  • Owing to the rising volume of seaborne trade, oil spills damage the marine environment for over 250 yearly. Thus, various analysis methods such as the Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), Raman spectroscope, and gas chromatography are used to monitor oil spills at sea, but these methods are expensive. Recently, to reduce operational costs, an underwater fluorometer was adopted. However, this approach is not ideal for the remote sensing of oil spills because the device gets submerged in the sea. In this study, we have designed and developed a monitoring system that uses ultraviolet fluorescence to detect spilled oil or water from a distance, as well as proposed an analyzing method defining based on water Raman signal and QF535. Each fluorescence spectrum of water, oil (crude oil), and Bunker A was obtained using the system, and was calculated and analyzed from the spectrum individually. Based on the results of the analysis, we could successfully identity water and oil at a long distance.
